It takes a lot for Richard Keys to admit he may have been wrong. Especially regards matters Liverpool.
But the disgraced former Sky Sports presenter was willing to admit he erred in being so dismissive of Jurgen Klopp's continued attempts to extract every ounce from his squad by calling on the services of throw-in coach Thomas Gronnemark.
"I was never convinced by Liverpool’s use of a ‘specialist’ throw-in coach - but maybe I was wrong," said Keys late last year. "The stand-out argument appears to be that teams have to be careful when taking a throw because they’re down a man at that moment. Maybe - but it’s only for a millisecond if they are."
